49' - Reds pull the ball the into the Arsenal half. Firmino with a really clever bit of skill turns in the box and so nearly buries it in the net.

51' - Arsenal pull a 'run over the ball and let the other fella kick the ball' but their timing is off and the receiver is offside.

Mustafi clips Phil and we have a FK just outside the Arsenal box.

54' - Lallana, Firmino, Coutinho combine and work the ball into a position from which we earn a corner.

Corner is dealt with calmly and nothing comes of it.

59' - Mane with a great run passes the ball to Phil who drills it across the goal mouth. Mustafi manages to clear - good clearance. The corner kick falls for Gini who fires it into the press in the box. Ball is cleared.

62' - Dangerous run by Bellerin - cuts it back across to the arriving Giroud but Clyne gets there first and sidefoots.

Mane brought down - Klopp questions why no card

63' - Mane with great work in the middle - hold the ball up against 3 yellow shirts. Clyne receives and absolutely wastes a good ball - shoots high and nowhere near on target.

66' - Mane with terrific work on the right which leads to absolute end to end stuff. Can earns a yellow during that period of counter attack.

68' - Arsenal (by all accounts since I didn't watch the first half), are a completely different proposition with Sanchez on the pitch.

70' - Mane and Gini combine and move the ball into a dangerous area but the yellow shirts hold firm.

The crowd is living every moment with the team.

Arsenal change appears to be imminent.

Corner to us is cleared and Arsenal break. Sanchez intercepted on the centre line.

73' - Reds showing better control now and we knock the ball around in and around the box.

Phil with a chance to snap one from the edge of the box clips it well over.

Walcott and Peres on; Giroud and Wellbeck off.

74' - Sanchez gives the ball away on the halfway line.

FK 35 yards out. Coutinho takes. A beauty of kick and Matip gets a touch but not a good one. Cech dives to the right and gathers.

76' - Appears that Origi will be coming on.

Can writhes on the ground and remains down. Matip and himself clattered into each other with Walcott vaulting over them both.

80' - Firmino gives the ball away in the middle of the park. Arsenal counter quickly down the right but the cut back finds a red shirt and we clear. Arsenal push hard.

82' - OH!!

The ball floats in (Milner) and is headed against the post  - unlucky, very unlucky for Origi.

83' - Up at the other end Bellerin steams in floats one into the box from the right. The receiver has no control thought and it's a goalkick.

85' - Yellow shirt swarm down the right but the ball is fired along the ground straight at Mignolet who gathers and falls on it safely.

90' - Reds aiming to wind down the clock as 3' are added on.

VGGGGGGGGGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL


3-1 Gini

That was a lethal break - Matip to Lallana who hold the ball up since he sees that Origi was still offside. Origi then collects, steams down the right and passes it across the middle for Gini to coolly slot it past Cech in the the bottom right corner.

Lucas on for Lallana
